The case against Harry Quebert will be based on more than just the discovery of human remains on his property.
Some of the most powerful people in New England get involved as the reopened investigation brings unwanted attention to certain circles.
Jenny Quinn (played by Tessa Mossey as a teen and Victoria Clark as an adult) becomes mixed up in the case, along with her mother Tamara (Virginia Madsen).
The body is that of Nola Kellergan (Kristine Froseth), who was Quebert’s muse before her disappearance and death.
